2026 Fellowship Dues for the Maine Conference will be $20.43/member. Conference Dues fluctuate year to year by the federally-established COLA rate, unless changed by special vote of the Conference at Annual Meeting.
2026 Fellowship Dues for the Cumberland Association are $2.10/member. (Many churches do add Conference and Association Dues together to make one line item for their budgets, but we want you to know how the dues are actually assessed.)
2026 Fellowship Dues for each church are calculated on the number of members reported as of December 31, 2025. Membership MUST be reported to the UCC via the UCC Data Hub by each church. If you do not file your statistics with the UCC data hub, your church’s dues will be calculated on the most recent statistics you have filed on the Data Hub. Data Hub reporting is done in January or February each year.
2026 DUES for both Association and Conference will be invoiced to churches in the Spring, and are due May 15th.
Debra DeLong is our Cumberland Association Treasurer. All Maine Conference and Cumberland Association dues (also Scholarship Fund donations) should be sent to Deb at her address -152 Puritan Drive, Westbrook, ME 04092. Her email address is djgdelong@gmail.com. Checks should still be made payable to the Cumberland Association and mailed to Deb’s home address. She then forwards the Conference Dues to the Conference.
